ITPA Knockout Cell Lines

Gene: ITPA

Official Full Name: inosine triphosphataseprovided by HGNC

Gene Summary: This gene encodes an inosine triphosphate pyrophosphohydrolase. The encoded protein hydrolyzes inosine triphosphate and deoxyinosine triphosphate to the monophosphate nucleotide and diphosphate. This protein, which is a member of the HAM1 NTPase protein family, is found in the cytoplasm and acts as a homodimer. Defects in the encoded protein can result in inosine triphosphate pyrophosphorylase deficiency which causes an accumulation of ITP in red blood cells. Alternate splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Jun 2012]

Background

ITPA Gene Knockout Cell Lines are specially designed cellular models in which the Inosine Triphosphate (ITP) pyrophosphatase gene has been deliberately disrupted or "knocked out" to investigate the role of ITPA in various biological processes. This gene is crucial in purine metabolism, as it helps regulate nucleotide pools and protects cells from the harmful accumulation of inosine triphosphate, which, if left unchecked, can lead to cellular toxicity and genomic instability. By creating these knockout cell lines, researchers can rigorously study the specific functions of ITP in cellular homeostasis, stress response, and apoptosis, contributing significantly to our understanding of diseases linked to nucleotide imbalances, such as cancer and mitochondrial dysfunction.

The ITPA Gene Knockout Cell Lines exhibit distinct phenotypic changes compared to wild-type cells, allowing for detailed functional assays and compound screenings. Utilizing CRISPR-Cas9 technology ensures precise editing of the gene, providing a reliable model for elucidating biochemical pathways and testing therapeutic strategies. These cell lines are invaluable in academic research for drug discovery, gene therapy, and the development of genetic engineering techniques, as they help illustrate the impact of the ITPA gene on cellular physiology and disease mechanisms.

What sets our ITPA Gene Knockout Cell Lines apart from alternatives is their proven reliability and reproducibility in experimental settings, paired with robust support for experimental design and troubleshooting from our expert team.
